(ORDO NEWS) — The Bermuda Triangle has been troubling scientists for many years. Dozens of people risked their lives trying to solve its mystery. Unfortunately, we do not know the final answer about the cause and origin of the natural anomaly. This is reported by The Mirror.
However, one researcher believes that he may finally know what is behind the disappearances in the Bermuda Triangle.
Speaking on the Channel 5 documentary Secrets of the Bermuda Triangle, mineral prospector Nick Hutchings explained that Bermuda is essentially a seamount – an underwater volcano.
“30 million years ago it rose above sea level. Now it is blurred, and we are left with the top of the volcano. We have several core samples that contain magnetite. This is the most magnetic natural material on Earth,” said the specialist.
In the program, Hutchings conducted an experiment using some rock samples and a compass. When the stone was placed on a flat surface and they began to move the device along it, the arrow went crazy. This is explained by the fact that the rock contains magnetite.
“One can only imagine ancient sailors sailing past Bermuda. It would be very confusing,” the expert added.
Interesting! The Bermuda Triangle is an area of the North Atlantic Ocean near Bermuda where several ships have disappeared in recent years.
Some claim that there is a hidden whirlpool, others suggest that aliens may be responsible for the disappearance of sea transport. However, one of the experts claims that the stones can explain the mystery.
